Roseanne for president: Comedic actress files papers

The Associated Press and TMZ are reporting that comedienne and self-proclaimed “domestic goddess” Roseanne Barr has filed documents to run for president.

Apparently, she thinks that only a woman can solve this nation’s problems. Check out the above video from her website.

Barr, who starred in the classic sitcom Roseanne and in her 2011 reality-TV show, Roseanne’s Nuts, plans to run under the banner of the Green Party.

Barr says she’s sick of Democrats and Republicans, whom she believes are not working in the best interests of the American people.

So what, you ask, is Roseanne pushing? The answer is simple … pot. She wants marijuana legalized and sold strictly domestically.

If you’re not taking her seriously, apparently a Green Party official does. Tom Yager posted on her website: “I am pleased to inform you that Roseanne Barr is officially recognized by the Green Party of the United States, Presidential Campaign Support Committee, as a Green Party Presidential Candidate.”

The star in a statement to AP that she’s a longtime supporter of the party and looks forward to working with people who share her values.

“The Democrats and Republicans have proven that they are servants — bought and paid for by the 1% — who are not doing what’s in the best interest of the American people,” Barr said.

Barr has started a grassroots campaign for support through her Twitter account and website. On her website, she writes:

I’m tired of watching as men destroy all the world. Everything used to be beautiful when women were in charge, and now I, working as the physical manifestation of the goddess Isis and the reincarnation of Cleopatra, have decided to save the world.

Remember what happened when she sang the national anthem? We’re guessing her campaign will suffer the same fate. But the way the race for president seems to be going, just about anything is possible.
